They're just freaking killing themselves

******* penalties have led to three changes of possession.

I actually thought he looked a little jumpy in the first series. That's kind of part of his game though I guess.

Gee, Josh looks really nervous still.......

It's a spot foul when its downfield

Lotta vanilla ice cream that first series. Was wondering if McD and Frazier would be inclined to keep a lot of the flavor held back for a playoff game.

Rousseau getting mugged

I think it is

Make it 5; I hiked the dog all day and am parched!

0 Some of us have to go to work early, you gloating bastards. You guys mind if I drink through you vicariously?

Currently looks like KC will be just into a dry slot when the game starts and will stay that way most of the evening. Some small cells firing up on the radar right now that could arrive in the area in the 3rd/4th qrtr. Could be some occasional wind pushing through from outflow from surrounding cells.

I'm guessing we'll see Mongo starting at LG since he's dressed.

Maybe even by a few scores. They've been wearing good teams down in the second half this year and I think it would have happened again. Very frustrated as a PSU fan who thought they had the best balanced team they've had in a long time. It looked like a corn maze out there. 😪

That was their only game vs a ranked team this year and they got to play them without a QB. Glad their having fun with it now cuz somebody is going to pummel them in the Big 10 Championship.

Can I move? I'm better when I move...

I think you only have to do two things: 1) Make it legal for a DB to cut off a guys route again. 2) Make the arm bar legal again

He's always been a giant kitty-kat. I was gob-smacked when an NFL team declared him their starter.

Not everything can be quantified; at least in a manner which we're capable of understanding. As for Edmunds, he's just sort of OK at everything. Aside from the occasional play where he looks sort of silly, he does an adequate job with most of his responsibilities. I don't think he's near as good an athlete as everybody wants to give him credit for, nor do I think he's a glaring hole in the Bills D. I just don't want to see us lose a really good player (Poyer, Oliver, Dawkins, etc) because we decided to tie up a bunch of cap space on a guy who can be replaced by a cheaper player who is just.....OK.

Thank you........ I think? - )

It's not something you calculate, I think it's just something you see.

It may be 50/50 by teams, but there are individuals who excel in that area because of how they see the game. Some guys just recognize before others when the ball is going to come out, or what angle at which it's going to hit the turf and bounce or when they can handle it with a scoop or need to get down on it because somebody else is closing behind them, etc.

Some guys are just ball magnets and that's the way it is. Like a great rebounder who just instinctually senses where to set up and box out, some guys have a natural tendency to take the ball away because they know where it is and sense where it's about to be.. Maybe it's because they're so anticipatory or they're seeing the game at a different speed than everybody else, whatever the case it's real and no mathematical rationalization is going to account for it. Watch Tre White or Milano making tackles; they've always got one fist punching in the process of wrapping up. Or Poyer's instinctive timing to be able to coil and then attack at the vulnerable moment. That's a perfect example. Poyer could have absolutely walloped Pascal as he was stupidly trying to get back up, but he didn't. He instinctively held himself up to avoid contact until Pascal was off the ground and then hammered the ball the split second that Pascal's knee came off the turf. You can't teach guys to see the game at that kind of a different speed than everybody else, you either have that or you don't. And Edmunds just doesn't.

The problem with that is if you try to ride him, you're going to lose him. He's one of those guys that runs so galdanged hard that it's only a matter of time before he gets hurt. Protect him from himself by making him part of a tandem and you'll have a great back you can rely on all year; try to turn him into a lead back and you're going to be watching the Bills wasting downs with Matt Breida behind an OLine that can't make space for him.
